I personally use the Peltor Optime 105 Series. For the money you simply can't beat them.

I also wear foam ear plugs when shooting clays.
I have a couple different things. I have regular old Winchester headphone/earmuff type, and another thing that is kinda like a headband with the foam rubber earplugs on it, but I dont put them in my ears, just let the pressure from the headband hold them on.
I just ordered the Radians CEP001-R Custom Molded Earplugs (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002XU ... PDKIKX0DER) to use for sporting clays.
Huh? Whud ya say?
I don't think that brand or style means much when it come to this subject. The important thing is to use some sort of ear protection. I never seemed to have my muffs with when I needed them so I bought a box of throw away foam ear plugs at an auto supply store. I threw some of them in my truck, some in my range bag, some in my field kit and some in my fanny pack (mini field kit) so I would always have some handy. I think I paid something like $4 for 4 dozen sets. If one gets a little waxy I just give it a toss.

Ear plugs I snatch from work 
I'd like to get some of the fancy electronic ear muffs one day.

I've been meanin to get a pic of what we use, and I finally did. Just real basic Winchester ear muff type from WalMart. Eye protection is the same kind I'd buy for work. Impact and shatter resistant, theyre made by Nemisis and are polarized. I have a pair with amber lenses too.
Just some of those little red silicone plugs from Bass Pro, about $4 and I can't hear $#!+.

Howard Leight R-01526 Impact Sport Electronic Earmuff
These are great for classes and matches where you need to hear the commands.
I got this same pair off Amazon for about $50 - I was a bit skeptical since I saw some electronic for $300 but these seem to be really good so far - needed them for range commands initially, but fun to turn up and hear the birds
do you wear them while hunting? or just for target practice?
these are what i'm using atm...

I use these for Skeet as well as Sporting Clays.
I love being able to hear the coversations with them.
The high comb on my Trap gun hits the bottom them, so I use these instead. No need for talking while shooting Trap.
